When Thatcher dies....

lyrics

"Living with recession"
- We're NOT all in this together - Dave !

Everbody is so aware
that this country's in a mess
Greasy politicians say..
"We know what's best"
Well....every time I listen
it makes me feel quite ill
priveleged public schoolboys
with their fingers in the till

Casino banking "talent"
spat upon us all
so now you screw the people
that you''ve screwed
so many times before ?
Redundancies, restructures
Pension raids & cuts
The credit crunch -the deficit
Gangster bankster twats !

I'm sick of all the bullshit
I'm fed up with this crap
I'm just a happy chappy cockney
Put some coppers in my cap
You chinless wonders prattle
While "outraged -Tunbridge Wells"
fiddles with her fairy cakes
While we descend to hell

So silence is collusion
but I'm frightened now at work
I'm astonished by the callousness
it's division ruled by jerks
I'll break the bonds - I'll free my soul
I'll eat forbidden fruit
embed my head in shifting sand
I'll try and keep my loot

We're not all in this together - Dave !
Living with recession

There's crisis in the hospitals
There's crisis in the Schools
Crisis ... on the railways!!
Caused by stupid bloody fools !
Unemployent's soaring
so benefits are cut ?
Rampant rising prices
The cconomy is fucked !
So now I'll take in laundry
to try and make end meet
... tighten my belt
in your "spirit of the blitz"
You're fiddling all the numbers
You're just cooking all the books !
When you say, " this is all for your own good"

We're not all in this together Dave !
we're living with recession

How come that nice boy TONY
paid only 6%TAX last year?
on TWELVE MILLION POUNDS GROSS
just for spiel & toasts
That''s NOT THE SAME RATE AS ME !!
You're ringing in these changes
but your snout's inside the trough
I'm gonna polish my shoes
I'm gonna dance to this tune
on bloody Thatcher's corpse

We're NOT all in this together Dave !
Living with recession

Although stymied in wage slavery Jack still gets out to gig in London from time to time. Artist Manqué ?

Jack thought it wise to put out an album before he goes out in his box
